The sample means for the Healthy sample are further apart for each city in comparison to the
difference in the sample means for the Chronic samples. The spread in values of depression score
for the Healthy sample are very close. However, the spread in the values of depression score for
the Chronic sample are varying. We need further analysis to be able to come to any concrete
conclusion about the relationship of depression and city based on the health type.
Formulation of null and alternate hypothesis
Part 2&3
Healthy Sample Analysis:
Formulation of null and alternate hypothesis
H
0
: The Means of Depression scores for all the three locations are equal
H
a
: The Means of Depression scores for ATLEAST two locations are not equal
ANOVA: Single Factor

The computed F (5.24) is greater than the critical F (3.15), reject the null hypothesis (H
0
) and accept
the alternative hypothesis (H
a
). It can be inferred provided good health, depression scores are
dependent on location.
